What does RAMADA mean in Scrabble?
noun
North American
A roofed shelter with open sides, used for shade or outdoor eating.
Ramada is borrowed from Spanish, where it means a covering of branches, and it is used mainly in the American Southwest. Such a structure gives shade in hot, dry country without shutting out the breeze. People build them beside houses, at picnic sites and in campgrounds. The idea is close to that of an arbour or a porch, though it is usually freestanding.
